- Reason
- The image is widely used across wikipedia, and in general across wikimedia projects, is of a good quality and adds encyclopedic value to many articles. Among them, it especially enriches articles Araldo Cossutta (where it illustrates Corbusier’s—and particularly of this building’s—influences on Cossutta rather convincingly) and to cubism (where it perfectly complements the text that it appears along), and obviously to the article on its subject and the ones on its designer and on the city of its location. The image has been on commons for a long time, and its addition to the many articles has been organic and over time.

- Comment – Good EV but the sharpness (viewed at full size) is subpar compared to FPs in the Architecture category. Bammesk (talk) 03:11, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Bammesk: Good point. I have tried to sharpen the image, and also reduce the slight noise in the sky. Please have a look and let me know if the edit is satisfactory. Thanks for the input. UnpetitproleX (talk) 09:44, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
- Support Nice choice of angle; suspect a straight-on view would be boring and arguably misleading. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.7% of all FPs 06:30, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
- Weak Support Sharpness is probably about as good as we are going to get for a 2006 era camera. Has there been no time in the intervening 16 years where the rubbish has been cleaned from the moat?©Geni (talk) 04:40, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Geni:It was cleaner when I visited in January this year (though ofcourse, January is less windy than September), but I only had my phone so my picture isn’t great, and also has less of the building. The rubbish can be cloned out if that might get your fuller support, I’ll try to do it later, though if someone else wants to try they may. UnpetitproleX (talk) 06:08, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Geni and UnpetitproleX:
Done I have removed the rubbish from the moat; I mean, from the photo ;–). You may need to refresh you browers’s cache to see the new version. --Aristeas (talk) 09:27, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
